R-R-R-Riddles!

[jordanisonfire]

So, yes, we are all very intelligent and wise, are we not? :P So, let us all put forth our riddles and allow others to solve them. :) Also, don't flood the whole thing with riddles, let some previous ones get answered before posting your own, otherwise it's going to be a big mess. :D

[Rafael Domination]

What lies on the ground, without flesh or bone, but in 21 days, will walk alone! :D

Try that one...

[Zaphkiel]

What has four legs in the morning, two in the afternoon, and three at night?

[Rafael Domination]

What has four legs in the morning, two in the afternoon, and three at night?

Mankind! :D

Too easy.

[GeorgeMichael]

dimwitted GeorgeMichael doesn't get it... anyone care to explain :P

[Rafael Domination]

You post a riddle you know and try to solve the ones others have set up..

[Zaphkiel]

Pretty good, Raff. I knew you would get it if know one else did.

[Rafael Domination]

It was the sphinx who gave it to Opedius.

Now...can anyone try to guess mine? I got it off an old Sesame Street episode that I remembered...:D

[Nyx]

I would try yours Riff-Raff...but I'd fail miserably:P

[GeorgeMichael]

You post a riddle you know and try to solve the ones others have set up..


no I meant the mankind riddle, I didn't get it...

[Rafael Domination]

Mankind's 'morning' is his infancy
his afternoon is his adulthood
his evening is his senior years.

People back then refered to 'days' to describe someone's life.

He walks on fours as a baby
He uses two feet as an adult
He uses a cane as a third foot when he is old...

this is an ancient riddle :D

[GeorgeMichael]

ah I see, ok then, let's pretend this never happened :) *Backs away slowly*

[Nyx]

Mankind's 'morning' is his infancy
his afternoon is his adulthood
his evening is his senior years.

People back then refered to 'days' to describe someone's life.

He walks on fours as a baby
He uses two feet as an adult
He uses a cane as a third foot when he is old...

this is an ancient riddle :D

Yea it is acient...even I knew that one:P

[Rafael Domination]

No one could still guess mine...




:D

[Tncowgirl]

Alright, Raffy, I want to know the answer.

Oh and here is a riddle:

There are 2 ducks in front of 2 other ducks.
There are 2 ducks behind 2 other ducks.
There are 2 ducks beside 2 other ducks.
How many ducks are there?

[Rafael Domination]

It's an egg! :D

(Lies in the yard without flsh or bone, but in 21 days, it HATCHES...and walks alone...)

I think the answer to TN's riddle is either 12 or 6 :P

[Shaun]

I took that mankind riddle a totally different way (I thought it meant "Men"):
In the morning you're on all fours cause you're just getting up. In the afternoon you're on two cause you're at work or school or someplace walking. And at night you have three because...well...you know, that extra leg we have...

[Rafael Domination]

Wow... :D :rolleyes:

You haven't read any greek myths lately?

[Tncowgirl]

Nope, it is neither of those. :D

[Shaun]

It's 4. 4 ducks. Look at it this way:

Duck / Duck
Duck / Duck

Two ducks in front of two, two ducks behind two, and two beside two. Four ducks.

[Tncowgirl]

Yup, Shaun got it right. :D

[GeorgeMichael]

I am Ripper... Tearer... Slasher... I am the Teeth in the Darkness, the Talons in the Night. Mine is Strength... and Lust... and Power!

Who am I?

:) :) :D

[Rafael Domination]

My girlfriend? :D

[GeorgeMichael]

lol, no... it's from a recent movie... a recent animated but didn't look so animated at first movie...

[Rafael Domination]

300? Wanted? Jumper?

Which one?

[Ichigo]

"What cannot possibly live but end a thousand lives?"

This was one the Twisted Runes from TW posted, but he left before it was answered.

[Rafael Domination]

A virus. It's biologically not alive, but it can sure kill a lot! :D

[GeorgeMichael]

the answer was Beowulf... the tagline finished "I AM BEOWULF!" Which totally took away from 300's Sparta quote.

[Rafael Domination]

Oh...pshhhh.

*Nice one though :P*

[Shaun]

Oh, that Beowulf abortion...yeah I would never have known that cause I avoided that film like the plague.

What can speak, but isn't a parrot, can think, but isn't intelligent, has huge amounts of power, but can't use it, and is half of a worldwide penis joke?

[Rafael Domination]

A laptop?

Yes? No?

[Shaun]

Nope, not a laptop.

[Imelda]

What can speak, but isn't a parrot, can think, but isn't intelligent, has huge amounts of power, but can't use it, and is half of a worldwide penis joke?

Most of the men in the UK?

:D

[Shaun]

Nope, wrong again :P

[Rafael Domination]

Me? :(

[Shaun]

Nope, not even close :P. Good lord, Raf, you're not like that at all!

[Rafael Domination]

Lemme wager a guess...

President Bush?

[Imelda]

What I said is a secondary answer then, because it's totally true.

[Shaun]

Raf wins! It was Mr. Bush :P

[Rafael Domination]

Oh wow... :rolleyes:

[kitkat]

(this one was my granfathers fav. Haven meet anyone who could fighure it out othre then my sci. teacher who heard it before.)

[ScottyMcGee]

a fsh! I got it!


curses! Foiled!

[Andy]

Thanksgiving? Or Old McDonald?

I'll get the hang of this eventually. I think. :P

[appleofmyeye]

We have riddles like this every day in Science. I'll copy them down and post them here ^^.

[Simmi]

I suck at riddles =(

[appleofmyeye]

This one is good :devious:.

How about you can ask me questions. I can only answer yes or no.

Oh God I feel like my Science teacher. Yeah!

[Simmi]

Is that supposed to be a riddle?

[appleofmyeye]

No... never mind. Forget it. Scratch the idea! It's been white outed.

[kitkat]

No one even wants to guess mine XD

[appleofmyeye]

You don't get down from an elephant. You get down from a goose.

Yawn... next?

[kitkat]

XD Damn you

[Simmi]

umm. Here's a stupid one. What's black and white and red all over?

[Bowie20049]

You after I drag you to the underground torture chamber

[Simmi]

Um. Incorrect.

[Bowie20049]

A bloodly color-less film?

[kitkat]

A zebra in a blender XD

[Jack]

Not sure whether this counts as a riddle. More like a logic test, but its kinda' riddly. So...

There are two doors. One leads to heaven, the other one to hell. You (hopefully) want to go to heaven. Each door is guarded by identical guards that you cannot tell the difference beteween. The one that is guarding heaven always tells the truth, the one that is guarding hell always tells a lie. The guards have no recognition of anything outside of the white room that you stand in, and all you have on you is yourself (no clothes, objects or other people etc.)

You have to find out which door is which by asking only one question to either of the guards. What question do you ask?

[Lykaios]

"Which is not the right door?"

:)

[Jack]

That wouldn't work becuase you don't know wich one your asking. If your asking the one guarding hell he will lie and tell you the door to heaven is not the right door. :(


CLUE: They know who they are, and they know the one guarding hell always lies, and the one guarding heaven always tells the truth. :)

p.s This is a really hard one to get.

[kitkat]

You tell one to "Go to hell!" and if there all pissed then thats the right door. If he takes it as a complument then you at the wrong door?

[Lykaios]

Fine, ask both of them the same question, but ask it like: "Which door would the other guard say is the right door?"

Because then the Liar would point to the bad door, because it's not what the truth teller would do and the truth teller would also point to the bad door because that's what he knows the other guardian would do.

[kitkat]

I liked mine beter XD

[Jack]

You can only ask one question and you can only ask it to one guard. Sorry again :( But you're actually really close.

[kitkat]

SO IM RIGHT O_O? sorry cap lock

[Jack]

Neither of you are right. But Lykaios is close. The thing is really to understand the concept when i tell you the answer, becuase it is a really hard idea to grasp. Even when i have laid the answer out to people they still don't seem to be able to grasp the concept. It is a really tricky test.


D'ya give up?

[appleofmyeye]

Are y'all giving up on mine?

[Simmi]

Ask the guard do you ever tell the truth?

[Jack]

Well you wouldn't know becuase if it's the one that lies he will say yea, and if its the one that tells the truth, he will also say yea.

[Simmi]

Darn it... jeez. The question is on the tip of my tongue but I just can't figure it out. Do you ask them- Do you know which one tells the truth?

[Lykaios]

You have to ask both, otherwise you can't tell which is which. :confused:

[Simmi]

Do you ask am I dead?

I think that's the answer

[Crocolyle]

You ask Lykaios' question to one guard. It's redundant to ask both of them since they both would identify the same door.
Ex)
Door A is Bad
Door B is Good.

You ask the lying guard, "Which door would the other guard say is right?" He would identify Door A, since he's lying. But if you had asked the truth-telling guard instead, "Which door would the other guard say is right," he would also identify Door A, the wrong door. So regardless of who you ask, the right door would be Door B.

[Mercy]

How is a raven like a writing desk? :)

[appleofmyeye]

They both fly?

[Crocolyle]

Ha! Lewis Carroll.

There is no answer.

[Lykaios]

You ask Lykaios' question to one guard. It's redundant to ask both of them since they both would identify the same door.
Ex)
Door A is Bad
Door B is Good.

You ask the lying guard, "Which door would the other guard say is right?" He would identify Door A, since he's lying. But if you had asked the truth-telling guard instead, "Which door would the other guard say is right," he would also identify Door A, the wrong door. So regardless of who you ask, the right door would be Door B.

Yes, but asking both guards would just make sure. It's not like you're in a hurry; you're dead, either going to Heaven or hell so it's not like you don't have time to wait a minute for the other guy to answer. :D

Meh, it'd be different if there was a big hairy monster chasing you . . . :P

[kitkat]

Ya big hair monsters rock socks off, but I really like the one I posted couse if you tell the guard thats garding hell to go to hell he will be like "ya i know" or "no". But if you tell the guard thats garding heaven he will be all like "Dont say stuff like that you @*&%^$%*! im not going to hell' but i dont think he will let you in if you tell him that.

[appleofmyeye]

Wtf.

[Jack]

Not sure whether this is what you mean guys, but i'll post the answer up anyway so you can see if you're right or not:

The answer to mine is this. You ask either of the two guards:


If I were to ask the other guard what door he was guarding, what would he say?

If you ask the one that’s guarding hell, he knows that the other guard will say Heaven, but he is going to lie, so he will say hell.

If you ask the one that’s guarding heaven, he knows that the other guard will lie and say heaven, so he will say heaven.

Therefore, whatever the guard answers to that question is the door they are guarding.


Any questions?

[Lykaios]

The guard guarding Hell might be the truth-teller and the guard guarding Heaven might be the liar. The point is, you don't know, so you can't do it like that.

And the truth-telling guard would know that the liar would say what he wouldn't say, so then they'd both say the same door.

Liar --> would say the opposite of what the truth-teller would normally.

Truth-Teller --> would say the door that the liar would say as that's the truth of what the other would say.

=

Which would the other guard say is the right door?

Liar: points to the door to Hell. (because he's lying about what the truth teller would normally say)
Truth Teller: Points to the door to Hell. (Because he's telling the truth about the other guard who couldn't tell the truth and would therefor point at the door to hell.)

So they both say the same and you go through the other door. :)

[Jack]

I dont know what your saying. But no matter what way you look at it, that is the right answer. What is thier that you don't understand?

[kitkat]

This is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it? It looks so plain you would think nothing is wrong with it! It is unusual though. Study it, and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit, you might find out! Try to do so without any coaching!

[appleofmyeye]

There isn't a indention.

[kitkat]

No wrong apple,:crazy: HA HA HA stumped are you:crazy:!!!!!!!

Compare the riddle with over things people typed.

[Simmi]

The last sentence is weird? It's actually a paragraph? Umm -thinks- the sentences are to short?

[appleofmyeye]

It has exclaimation marks?

[kitkat]

Nope and Nope.
Clue, Theres something missing, but theres nothing at all wrong with it.
(Man I'm loveing this! Keep guessing)

[Simmi]

Is the word 'to' missing? or 'as to'?

[kitkat]

Nope, its real simple, look at it and compare it to something else. Even this post provides clues XD

[Simmi]

The commas?

[Simmi]

The para has the word 'it' alot?

[kitkat]

Still has nothing to do with it.

If you still dont get it I will go Donky Kong on you big behind.

Name this phrase...

Quack Quack

Save it for someone else, whats this subtost to mean?

[appleofmyeye]

Fowl Language.

He, he. Get it? They're fowl, and foul language. A play on words.

[Simmi]

haha nice one apple.

[kitkat]

Ya that one was good :D.

[appleofmyeye]

I'm putting my new one!

The story behind Einstein's riddle is that Albert Einstein created it in the late 1800s, and claimed that 98% of the world population couldn't solve it. I am not sure of the true origin, but I have seen this one floating around the internet, and it is a good brain exercise. Here it is:

- In a street there are five houses, painted five different colors.

- In each house lives a person of different nationality.

- These five homeowners each drink a different kind of beverage, smoke different brand of cigar and keep a different pet.

Einstein's riddle is: Who owns the fish?

Necessary clues:

1. The British man lives in a red house.
2. The Swedish man keeps dogs as pets.
3. The Danish man drinks tea.
4. The Green house is next to, and on the left of the White house.
5. The owner of the Green house drinks coffee.
6. The person who smokes Pall Mall rears birds.
7. The owner of the Yellow house smokes Dunhill.
8. The man living in the center house drinks milk.
9. The Norwegian lives in the first house.
10. The man who smokes Blends lives next to the one who keeps cats.
11. The man who keeps horses lives next to the man who smokes Dunhill.
12. The man who smokes Blue Master drinks beer.
13. The German smokes Prince.
14. The Norwegian lives next to the blue house.
15. The Blends smoker lives next to the one who drinks water.

(Here's a hint, you pretty much need some paper and a pencil to figure this out. Drawing a diagram is best.)

[Simmi]

The blend smoker?

[appleofmyeye]

you have to answer by nationality. E.G= The American has the fish.

[Simmi]

This is confusing!

I shall guess the Norwegian person.

[appleofmyeye]

I'll help you out. A grid is the easiest way to figure it out. Put the heritage in colums and the cigars, food, and pets in the rows. Fill in the blanks with what the clues give you. Also, it is necasarry to figure out the order of the houses.

[Simmi]

Ummm the German? I think that's the answer.

[Lykaios]

I got German too. It took me two and a half hour though, and a lot of paper. :P

THhat was a good riddle, apple. ^^

Here are my results:

http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp283/Lykaios-Faolan/scan0006.jpg

[kitkat]

:(Everyone gave up on mine, I'm the only one who figured it out when i saw it:(

[appleofmyeye]

Y'all got it right! It took me about 15 minutes, but I was doing it with my friends so I had help. I like that one ^^.

COME ON!!! Its not a very hard riddle, and I know your writers!!! How could you not get this?O_o:glare:

[Diocletian]

There's no "e". Next riddle, please.

[kitkat]

(Right, Now wasint that simple? another riddle as you wished. This one eazyer then the last.)

Elmer Johnson went to a hardware store to make a purchase for his house. He asked the store clerk, "How much will ane cost?" The clerk thought for a moment and said, "Three dollars," Elmer Johnson , who looked a little puzzled said, "Well then, how much will twelve cost?""Six dollars," replied the clerk. Elmer Johnson scratched his head and said, "If I were to purchase two hundred, how much would that cost?""That," said the clerk, "will cost you nine dollars."

What was Elmer Johnson buying?

[Simmi]

Gum? Tic-Tacs?

[Lykaios]

Something to do with houses and digits I guess. One digit = $3, two digits = double $3, and three digits = three times $3. I don't know what he was buying though, that bit's confusing as it could be anything. :confused:

[Simmi]

He was buying house numbers! I ish positive that is is.

[Lykaios]

House numbers? What are they?

[Simmi]

House numbers. Like house digits. But my mom told me the answer was house numbers so I just put that instead. :P

[Lykaios]

I got that it was digits and the riddle says he was buying them for his house but I still don't understand how they can go together. :confused:

EDIT: Do you mean the numbers like 4 Privet Drive etc?

[Simmi]

Umm. I really dunno. I shall ask my mom at dinner.

[kitkat]

Yes simmi you right he was buying house numbers. That one was a eazer riddle, good job. Ill let someone else put up a riddle, inless you want me to put up a harder one :P.

[appleofmyeye]

My turn ^^!

A creature has been living in the same waters for decades. It has attacked several tourists and has frightened many locals. Although it always attacks at the exact same place, millions of people visit that very place year after year.

The Mystery
WHERE is the creature always spotted and WHAT kind of creature is it?

[kitkat]

*Beats head in* I know this one! Umm Errrr, nope it lost me. Somewhere in Greenland, lockness monster? something like that

[appleofmyeye]

Nope :P.

[kitkat]

That little brumuta triangle thing?
http://www.bermuda-island.net/INTRODUCTION/images/Triangle.jpg

[Lykaios]

Somewhere in Greenland, lockness monster?

Hehe, the Loch Ness Monster is in Scotland. :P

[kitkat]

O man no wonder im failing geomitery!!! Arnt Greenland and scotland sorda the same?

[Simmi]

Isn't geometry math? The study of shapes? I think you men geography. If you meant geometry then I think you're failing both of those classes lol.

[kitkat]

I think your right XD.

[samers]

omg kati ur sooo dum

[kitkat]

Then why do you copy off my papers, homework, est.?

[appleofmyeye]

Try not to spam so much guys...

Do y'all give up?

[kitkat]

Sorry, and no the riddle only been up for like 5 min let me sleep on it

[Lykaios]

I give up, Apple.

Arnt Greenland and scotland sorda the same?

Er . . . No. Greenland is huge and Scoland is, in basic terms, the top half-ish of the UK. But on this map, most of Scotland is hidden behind the words 'United Kingdom'. So, in answer to your question, I'm sure you can see that there's a big difference between them. :P

http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp283/Lykaios-Faolan/greenland-Scotland.png

[kitkat]

OK Ok thanks for pointing out that I failed most of my classes now can we get back to apples riddle!
Ummm I have no more guesses.

[Simmi]

After sleeping on it all I thought of was Jaws Shark or something like that. A Universal ride...

[appleofmyeye]

Simmi's right!

[kitkat]

HAY NO FAIR!!! Ive never been to that amusment park, comr to think of it Ive only been to Six Flags and Frounter Days. No Jaws there.

[Lykaios]

I've got one:

What row of numbers comes next in this series?

1
11
21
1211
111221
312211
13112221

That was eaassyy.


Here's a fairly easy riddle.

One day a man was asked to safely transport a wolf, a cow, and hay from destination 1 to destination 2. Unfortunately, in order to get from destination 1 to 2, he had to cross a bridge. The catch was that he can only move them one at a time, and prevent one from eating the other. For example the wolf must not eat the cow, and the cow must not eat the hay.
FYI: They will not each other as long as the man is present. How can he do it?

[Lykaios]

*glares*

No fair.

Here's another:

You are standing outside a room with one lightbulb inside of it. You cannot see if it is on or off. Outside the room there are 3 switches in the off positions. You may turn the switches any way you want to. You stop turning the switches, enter the room and know which switch controls the lightbulb. How?

[Simmi]

Turn two of the light switches on. Wait a while, and then turn one of them off, then quickly enter the room. One light will be on, one off, and one off but still hot. Is that the answer?

[Lykaios]

. . . Yes. :glare:

Okay, I give up. Your go. :P

[Simmi]

lol.

A woman shoots her husband. Then she holds him under water for over 5 minutes. Finally, she hangs him. But 5 minutes later they both go out together and enjoy a wonderful dinner together. How can this be?

This one is pretty easy don't over think it.

[Lykaios]

She was taking his picture. :P

I already knew that one. ^^

[Simmi]

:D Yeah at first I was like "The husband had a twin!" Then I thought of the photographer. :rolleyes:

How many sides does a circle have?

[kitkat]

Two, inside and out.

My answer might be a little confusing but I think I got it. I solved it by making a chart:
Take the cow across first to side A, then go back to side B and take the hay to side A.
As you go to get the wolf, bring the cow across with you (leaving the Hay on side B).
Once you’re back on side A, leave the cow and take the wolf to side B. Now you should have the wolf and hay at side B, and the wolf at side A. Go back and get the cow.

[kitkat]

Ok hears my dum answer, let the cow eat the hay. THHEN let the wolf eat the cow, then you would only need to make 1 trip.

[Crocolyle]

Then you can take out a knife and have all three... only partially digested

[kitkat]

True, but you stole the right answer before I got on so what else should I say?

[Simmi]

Croc you're right. Not about the knife thing but the last post on page 15 :P Someone else post a riddle now.

[Crocolyle]

Has anyone said this one:

What gets wetter as it dries?

[appleofmyeye]

... a towel.

[Simmi]

Hmph you beat me to the answer!

[kitkat]

O I got a good one.

A black dog stands in the middle of an intersecton very close to a light pole. None of the street lights are working due to a power failure caused by a storm. A car with two broken headlights drives tword the dog but turns in time to avoid hitting him. How did the driver seen the dog in time?

[appleofmyeye]

The dog is wearing a headlamp.

[kitkat]

LOL, but no.

[Crocolyle]

@ apple, yup

O I got a good one.

It's the day time.

[kitkat]

Right, good job. Ill give someone else a chance to post a riddle.

[Crocolyle]

A man was imprisoned and needed a family member to pay his bail. A family member came. The guard asked the family member, "How are you related to the imprisoned man." The family member replied, "Brothers and sisters I have none, but this man's father is my father's son." Explain how the man and his family member are related.

[kitkat]

Some kinda step brother?

[Crocolyle]

Nope.

[appleofmyeye]

they're cousins.

IF the man has no siblings, and the imprisoned was fatherd by his father's son, then that makes the imprisoned the man's son.

They are Father and son.

I carry things, but don't have arms. Sometimes I tell you things, but have no voice. I'm very helpful, unless I get wet.

What Am I?

[Simmi]

A binder?

Right.

For yours, my guesses so far are "cell phone" and "heart," but I fear that neither is right. Perhaps a book?

[JaceMT]

What Am I?

The answer is a cardboard box
It carries things but has no arms
It often tells you "this side up" or "I'm fragile"
Is very helpful...but have you seen what happens to them when they get wet... hehhe

I just happened to be looking a a soggy box at the time.

[JaceMT]

While you stand downwind from the south end of a northbound polecat, Tell me, what do you notice first?


This one is soo easy but it's just as funny.

[kitkat]

A northbound polecat?

[Lykaios]

It's tail? Or it's smell?

[JaceMT]

It's tail? Or it's smell?

Correct, A polecat is a skunk. You would notice the smell.

[kitkat]

A polecat is a skunk!!! Well i learnd something new today. O_o

[MetallicGryffon]

Here a clever riddle. A man was shot while in his car. The police cofirmed that it was not suicide, no one was in the car with him, the windows were never rolled down, and there were NO bulletholes in his car.How was the man shot?

[MetallicGryffon]

Its Pretty easy

[trinity]

Was it a camera shot? but then again why would the police be interested? hmm... Or maybe he wasn't shot in the car, maybe he was dragged in or something. I'm lost. :confused:

[MetallicGryffon]

Srry not even close.

[trinity]

Did he shoot himself by accident? :confused:

[MetallicGryffon]

Nope.

[trinity]

I give up. What's the answer?

[Melo]

Was the car a convertable?

[MetallicGryffon]

ya Trinity told you?

[MetallicGryffon]

Another good riddle: A man was shot in the chest, almost everyone has looked at tha scene. What was he doing at the time of the shooting?

[Jack]

Please don't double post. It's annoying.

[MetallicGryffon]

Whats double posting

[peepingthesmurf]

Here is the cheesiest riddle in the history of mankind.
I have six noses, four arms, three tongues, eight feet, five elbows, and nine shoulders. What am I?

[MetallicGryffon]

A freak or a monster.

[peepingthesmurf]

[Jack]

Whats double posting

Posting more than once one after another. Just put everything you want to say into one post.

[MetallicGryffon]

Sorry i was doing it on my PSP so i had a limited amount of characters to put in, so i couldnt put it all into one post, but im on my computer at the moment. BTW- I have been meaning to ask you, are u a moderator, and can u plz answer my riddle about the guy being shot in the chest, please. Thank You

[Bowie20049]

What was he doing? He was busy getting shot, that's what.

[MetallicGryffon]

No you're nowhere near close. Oh and i'm back on my psp.

[Bowie20049]

So he wasn't getting shot at the time he was shot in the chest? If I'm nowhere near close, then we have a paradox :3

[MetallicGryffon]

Well thats not the answer, but in a way I guess your right.

[trinity]

This is another one, kind of like Metallic Gryffon's. A couple were in a car when they suddenly ran out of fuel. The husband waked to the nearest gas station. Before he went, he made sure to lock the car doors and close the windows so that no one could come in and hurt his wife. When he came back, his wife was dead. A stranger had entered the car but everything was closed. How did the stranger get in ?

[MetallicGryffon]

Suicide?

[Ecosysticated]

The stranger was in the car before hand

[trinity]

No, she didn't kill herself. Someone entered the car. How?

[trinity]

The stranger was in the car before hand

Close, could you be more specific?

[MetallicGryffon]

I got it! The husband killed her.

[trinity]

Nope, sorry.

[MetallicGryffon]

Hmmm...... Her child did it? and yay you're finally on!

[trinity]

You're so close. How did the child manage to kill her?

[MetallicGryffon]

Hmmm..... she died while giving labor?

[trinity]

Bingo. That's right. She died while giving birth, the stranger that killed her was the baby.

[trinity]

Here's another riddle: A certain crime is punishable if attempted but not punishable if committed. What is it?

[MetallicGryffon]

Simple. Suicide.

[trinity]

Correct. Next riddle: When you have me, you feel like sharing me. But, if you do share me, you don’t have me. What am I?

[MetallicGryffon]

Love?

[trinity]

Wrong.

[MetallicGryffon]

Life?

[trinity]

Nope.

[MetallicGryffon]

I give up. Here's a good riddle: I suck but have no mouth, I stink but have no smell. What am I?

[trinity]

The answer is: A secret.

[MetallicGryffon]

Darn, that was so simple

[Alice Glitterhorn]

I give up. Here's a good riddle: I suck but have no mouth, I stink but have no smell. What am I?

Here's another riddle: Throw me off the highest building, I don't break. But put me in the ocean, and I will. What am I?

[shaden93]

[Rose]

Here's another riddle: Throw me off the highest building, I don't break. But put me in the ocean, and I will. What am I?

Nail?

[purplebottle]

HAMBURGER!

No, wait, tissue?

Water itself? I dunno.

[Rose]

Okay, here's a new one:

There's a thing that ain't really a thing, and it smells like carrots. What is it?

[yes]

Okay, here's a new one:

There's a thing that ain't really a thing, and it smells like carrots. What is it?

Um. Carrot smells

[Rose]

Nope.

[yes]

Nope.

Damn it

[Rose]

The answer is: Rabbit's fart. xD

[Omar]

Rabbit's fart?! But it is a thing.
And I said Rabbit's breath in the chat. So close! XD

[Rose]

Well, fart isn't a thing cause it ain't touchable.

As in... you can't trap farts in a jam jar for example, now can you? :P

[yes]

How do you know rabbit farts smell like carrots?

[Rose]

1- because I had a pet rabbit when I was nine.

2- because that's part of the joke. It's like half riddle, half joke... rijoke or jordle. :P

[yes]

1- because I had a pet rabbit when I was nine.

2- because that's part of the joke. It's like half riddle, half joke... rijoke or jordle. :P
Or a roke...

Edit... but jordle is my favorite :P

[Rose]

Ahahaha, yeah...

Maybe it's time for someone to post a new riddle...

[Omar]

What do you get when you have issues, issues, issues, issues, issues, issues, issues, issues, issues, and issues?

[shaden93]

Then you got big proplems???

[Omar]

Nuh-uh.
I'll make it easier for everyone. What do you get when you have ten issues?

[Soft Serve]

Nuh-uh.
I'll make it easier for everyone. What do you get when you have ten issues?

Footwear.

[Omar]

Oh cripes you're so close. How'd you manage to think that, though?

[Soft Serve]

Tennis Shoes then.

Which is what I was going for but didn't know if that's what they were actually called. :D

[Will]

Here's a new one.

It is greater than God and more evil than the devil. The poor have it, and the rich need it, and if you eat it you'll die.

What is it?

A friend of mine who's into religion said it once, and I actually liked it.

[Rose]

I think the answer is "Nothing"...

It is greater than God (nothing is greater than God) and more evil than the devil. (nothing is more evil than the devil) The poor have it, (poor have nothing)and the rich need it, (rich need nothing) and if you eat it you'll die. (if you eat nothing, you'll die)

[Soft Serve]

I think the answer is "Nothing"...

It is greater than God (nothing is greater than God) and more evil than the devil. (nothing is more evil than the devil) The poor have it, (poor have nothing)and the rich need it, (rich need nothing) and if you eat it you'll die. (if you eat nothing, you'll die)

If that's not the answer, it should be.

[Schooner]

I agree.

[shaden93]

Same with me...
Thats actualy pretty good thinking Rose!!!

[Will]

I think the answer is "Nothing"...

It is greater than God (nothing is greater than God) and more evil than the devil. (nothing is more evil than the devil) The poor have it, (poor have nothing)and the rich need it, (rich need nothing) and if you eat it you'll die. (if you eat nothing, you'll die)

Congrats Rose. You're right. The answer is ”Nothing”. :)

[Rose]

I had a feeling. :P

[Jack]

It would work if the rich really did need nothing. :rolleyes:
